Yeah, Bob is so great. He's the best econ personality out there right now.
Too bad he's a shitcoiner. Though he's been a bitcoiner for much longer. His book was one of the first I read.
Is he? I’ve only heard him talk about Bitcoin and it seemed like he got it.
Was it actually with Ver? I remember he had Stephen Patterson on to sort of give Roger's side of the argument.
I don't know enough to know why bitcoiners don't see any utility in that. Although, the few times when I have tried to understand other blockchain applications they ultimately didn't seem very compelling.
Oh, I didn't even know where he was working now. He seems to change jobs frequently.
Yikes, that doesn't look good on the surface.
Smart contracts, in particular, are something that seems less impressive the more I've learned about them.
True
One of my favorite things about Bob is that rarely if ever uses straw men but rather will steel man most things he is disagreeing with. I learned that I've had some flaws in my thinking about tariffs. It's easy to get high fives while dunking on Trump but that economist isn't a dummy. Assuming your opponents are dumb is easy these days but it's also lazy and in the long-term a mistake.
